Avantages
Four weeks of paid time off when starting (note that it does not roll over each year).
Inconvénients
The company required their professional (non-laboratory) staff to come to the office throughout the COVID-19 pandemic despite their proven ability to work remotely. Any complaints were met with thinly veiled threats of termination - in the middle of a pandemic! Essentially a collection of small companies that compete against each other rather than benefit from their combined size. Subject expertise and intelligence are ignored if not outright ridiculed. Management governs by fear and only expects to hear “yes.” Salary is about 30% below market. Bare minimum annual raises coupled with unreachable bonus targets. Most years bonus targets were not communicated until July. Employee attitude is slightly above what would be expected at a prison camp. No one speaks or even says hello in passing. Building manager uses a telecom system to make announcements that reverberate across a sea of cubical desks to put a finer point on the dystopian environment.
